An unresolved past erodes beauty in the present.

Writing a funny story is one thing. But writing a funny story that inspires others to venture beyond their level of comfort in pursuit of their greater good is what makes me come alive.

I had a grandmother who would always encourage me to learn about theater and film.

I'm taking the indie filmmaker's approach to building my career and that approach is developing a relationship with the fans.

It will be difficult if people can't get past their prejudices; I don't mean Black and White; I mean people automatically assume because a film has a predominantly Black cast, that it is a particular quality of film.

Stillness empowers. Being able to detach from all external stimulants - social media, social engagements, TV, alcohol, food, etc. - and face our own silence is an enormous luxury that should not be taken for granted. The most rewarding moments in my life have stemmed from such stillness.

I haven't really been auditioning. For me is about finding quality work versus finding work. I get a considerable amount of offers everyday.
